Reporting to Colette, our Head of Customer Success, you will be responsible for providing practical product support to our network of over 90 colleges with dedicated ownership of your key allocated accounts (you'll be the customer-focused hero they turn to for help).

You will use your expertise to build and maintain key relationships with your customers and support colleges in a consultative capacity to create end-to-end solutions and achieve their goals.
